Dr. Shirley Williams Hello My Name Is Doctor Shirley Holly Williams, DMD. I call myself an Austin native because I have been living there since I was a freshman in high school and because I just feel Austin is home. After I graduated from Anderson High School, I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I took my prerequisites for dental school. Later, I attended dental school at the University of Connecticut. (I came back to Austin because family is here and that is important to me.)I enjoy pretty much everything related to general dentistry, which is why I chose not to specialize. I feel so many dentists overlook how powerful “bread and butter” dentistry is at changing the lives of our patients. My strengths lie in gentle treatment and I particularly excel at extractions. To help keep me up-to-date on the basics of dentistry, I love partaking in study clubs around Austin. Consequently, I have amassed over 850 hours of continuing education. Additionally, I also have very strong customer service skills and always inform my patients with the best care options possible. For fun, when I am not spending time with family, I am reading, cooking, or watching documentaries. I am a voracious reader of all types of books—fiction, self-help, non-fiction, investing, biographies. Also, I like learning new recipes that push me out of my comfort zone and visiting unique restaurants—I'm a bit of a foodie! |
